Would You Rather Questions: 201-210


201. Would you rather swim in a pool full of Nutella or a pool full of maple syrup?

Ummm, this is weird. I'll go with maple syrup for nothing other than consistency. It might be easier to move in the syrup, especially if it's good, natural syrup, rather than Nutella. 

Regardless, I'm taking a shower afterwards. 

202. Would you rather labor under a hot sun or extreme cold?

Hot Sun. This has been proven. Just ask anyone who knows me. I find the extreme cold to be so off-putting. I really dislike snow days. It hurts my soul to wake up and see my entire yard and driveway filled with snow, and the thought of an upcoming shoveling and snow-blowing session. 

I'll make it work in the heat.

203. Would you rather stay in during a snow day or build a fort?

Ha! Staying in and curling up in sweatpants, a hoodie, and a blanket. 

204. Would you rather buy things you don’t need every time you go shopping or always forget the one thing that you need when you go to the store?

Forget the one thing you need. I'm very much an online shooper at this point in my life. Buying things that I don't need is also a small pet peeve of mine. 

205. Would you rather never be able to go out during the day or never be able to go out at night?

Again, at the age of forty, not being able to go out at night is perfectly fine with me. Easy choice. 

206. Would you rather have a personal maid or a personal chef?

This is an interesting one. I'm going personal chef. I can still clean up after myself and find some dignity in that. A chef would be awesome...

207. Would you rather be 9 feet tall or nine inches tall?

9 feet tall. I would play so much pick-up hoops. 

208. Would you rather be an extra in an Oscar-winning movie or the lead in a box office bomb?

An extra in an Oscar-winning movie. Being part of something special is just that...special. I was very much a role player at every level of sports, so I'm fully okay with doing the best "in my role". 

Oddly enough, I think today's culture leans toward the lead option, regardless of results. 

209. Would you rather vomit on your hero or have your hero vomit on you?

This is so incredibly weird. There's a much deeper "this-is-the-type-of-person-you-are" vibe in this question. Along those lines, I would say, have my hero vomit on me...

Yeah, it felt weird to type. 

Maybe if "my hero" was chill, their embarrassment leads to a relationship? I don't know...

210. Would you rather communicate only in emojis or never be able to text at all ever again?

Emojis. My opinion is that some people overuse them. Text culture also bothers me - more so the ways and phrases shorten and conflict with proper punctuation and diction. But whatevs.

Not being able to text is fiiiiiiiine. Having everyone just text me emojis would force me to break my phone or likely end relationships. Drop me an email. haha.

Would You Rather: Questions 121-130

This edition of "Would You Rather" is credited to the NBA Would You Rather NBA Account on Instagram ( See Here ). Adding to the fun, this edition (and possibly future ones) are all NBA basketball questions.  121. Who would you rather have on your favorite NBA team - Giannis Antetokounpo or James Harden?  Seeing how I'm a lifelong suffering Knicks fan, the thought of any of these guys in blue and orange is hard to believe. With that said, I'm taking the Greek Freak for this reason - I enjoy watching him play a bit more. Nothing against Harden who is amazing as well, but at times, the ball sticks and that isn't always fun. Plus, I feel like we haven't yet seen a finished Giannis. 122. Would you rather have Giannis Antetokounpo with no driving ability or James Harden with no Three-Point shooting ability?  This is definitely a weird and unique one, but I'll take Harden. Giannis without his strength doesn't offer much. However, if Harden's d...

Quick Ponder: No Matter What

"You can give  everything to something, and no matter what, it is always gonna do what it's gonna do." I feel that these days. I get it. 

The Pondering 10: 2026 NBA All-Star Weekend

Contrary to the discourse that always surrounds the NBA All-Star Weekend, I genuinely enjoyed the weekend, and even more so, the All-Star Game. No, for real. All love here.  Although the Dunk Contest really is on its last legs. That was tough to watch.  Nonetheless, I'm keeping it all good vibes on this one as a fan. Just a quick Pondering 10 on my favorite things from the 2026 NBA All-Star Weekend.  --- View this post on Instagram A post shared by New York Knicks 🏀 (@nyknicks) 10. JB vs. KAT Moment Big Knicks homer moment here. If you frequent these parts, you already know that. Watching the Captain go at KAT brought a moment of joy for all of us in Knicks fandom. Neither one came away with anything. I'm just glad they're in perfect health as we head toward the second half of the season with the Playoffs looming.  9.
